Opportunity Summary:
Core II (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA CE09-906) is a CDC discretionary cooperative agreement designed to strengthen and expand the capacity of state health department injury prevention programs in three priority areas that align with the Healthy People 2010 focus on Injury and Violence Prevention. The opportunity is structured as a single program split into three clearly defined components, allowing applicants to target one or more injury and violence prevention needs depending on their state priorities, readiness, and existing infrastructure. The overarching intent is capacity-building and implementation support within state-level public health systems, with CDC working alongside recipients through the cooperative agreement model rather than simply issuing a no-strings grant.
The program is divided into three parts. Part A focuses on older adult fall prevention, supporting efforts to reduce fall-related injuries and their downstream impacts such as fractures, disability, loss of independence, and healthcare costs. Part B focuses on child injury prevention, a broad area that typically includes preventing unintentional injuries among children through evidence-based strategies, policy or systems approaches, and improved program coordination. Part C addresses teen dating violence prevention, aiming to prevent violence in adolescent relationships through public health approaches that may include surveillance, prevention programming, partnership development, and implementation of proven strategies. Applicants are allowed to apply for one, two, or all three parts, and CDC may fund applicants for one or multiple parts based on the application and funding decisions.
Funding is relatively targeted and moderate in size. The CDC anticipated making about 15 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $1,750,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between $150,000 (floor) and $200,000 (ceiling). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers for eligible state programs and their designated agents to participate without needing to secure additional non-federal dollars as a condition of award.
Eligibility is limited and specific. Only current state department of health recipients of the Public Health Injury Surveillance and Prevention Program Funding (CDC program 05027) are eligible to apply, or a bona fide agent applying on behalf of an eligible state or local government entity. A bona fide agent must be formally identified by the state as authorized to submit the application in lieu of the state, and documentation is required: applicants applying as a bona fide agent must include a letter from the state or local government confirming that status, submitted as an attachment through Grants.gov.
Administratively, this opportunity was posted on June 22, 2009, with an application deadline of August 3, 2009, and it was archived on September 2, 2009. The CFDA number associated with the program is 93.136 (Injury Prevention and Control Research and State and Community Based Programs), and the activity category is Health. As a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect substantial federal involvement typical of CDC cooperative mechanisms, such as technical assistance, performance monitoring, and coordination expectations, though the specific roles would be detailed in the full announcement.
For applicants needing help obtaining or accessing the full announcement materials, CDC listed support through the Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management section (phone 770-488-2700), reflecting that technical access and submission questions were handled through CDC grants support channels.
